Materials you will need:

How to make Recycled Bunny Craft:

1. Remove the top half of the egg carton and save if making animals other than bunnies. Cut out 3 individual cups from the bottom half of the carton, using scissors. Trim the rim and remove. For the body, stack 2 of the cups together so the openings meet. Glue together then set aside.
2. Using the third cup, leave one half intact for the face. Keeping the halves attached, cut out 2 ears from the other half (refer to photos).
3. Paint all pieces white and allow them to dry. Once dry, paint the inner ears and nose pink then add pink blush to the cheeks. Dab on 2 dots of black paint for the eyes then allow paint to dry. Attach face piece to body, adhere with glue then add a pom pom in the back as the tail.

2. To make a beak, cut out a small, triangular shape - about ¼" long - from the top half of the egg carton. Adhere it to the face slightly above where you glued the two halves of the cup together.
3. Paint the chick yellow, allow it to dry then dab 2 small dots of black paint above the beak for eyes.
